[autotag]Kyle Busch[/autotag] desperately needs a good run after the last five weeks. Busch has five straight finishes outside the top 10 spots and three 27th-place or worse finishes in the last five races. The Richard Childress Racing driver now goes into New Hampshire Motor Speedway with a 31-point deficit to the playoff cut-line. However, does the past support a weekend where Busch can have success in Loudon?
In 2023, Busch had a miserable debut race with Richard Childress Racing at New Hampshire, where he crashed out for a 36th-place finish. Previously, the former Joe Gibbs Racing driver had three straight finishes outside the top 10 spots. Over the last four Loudon races, Busch has three finishes of 36th place or worse due to accidents.
Busch hasn’t raced much at New Hampshire over the last four years, which is a trend that Richard Childress Racing hopes to overcome this weekend. The driver of the No. 8 car desperately needs a good run, with the playoff cut-line inching further away. Busch has the speed to run well at New Hampshire, but he needs to stay out of trouble on Sunday afternoon.
